Friday, January 14, 2022 - A small gathering - 02 Lignier MSD VV, 82 and 86 Mouton, 96 Giacosa Asili (Undisclosed location in McLean, VA): This was double decanted ahead. Beautifully mature nose displaying perfectly ripe black fruit, blackberry, crème de cassis, plum, flowers, caramel, lead pencil, ash, tobacco, cedar and earth. Perfectly integrated palate, very finely layered concentrated black fruit, silky and polished, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, very fine tannins, and a long concentrated black fruit driven finish with strong lead pencil at the end. The 82 Mouton typically displays opulent fruit when popped and poured. This shows more precision and detail. Excellent showing.
